"After a lifetime of setbacks tragedies, I'd finally reached a point in my life when I could hope to do some travelling, which had always been my fervent dream. I took one trip and had two more booked....and of course, that was when I was almost killed in an automobile wreck. I was no longer able to travel, either physically or financially. Over the last decade, I've found some pleasure in reading, viewing travel videos and so on, but today I discovered this site. I'm so excited I feel as if the captivating imagery has brought me as close as possible to being immersed in hundreds of the most fascinating and beautiful places on earth! Thank you most sincerely for this joy"

Progress by the bucketful at future farmers market site
Heavy equipment operator David Edwards breaks down a wall along Wall Street using an excavator while Dan Ewell sprays down the demolished building with a hose Thursday afternoon in Everett. The crew is clearing the way for the downtown farmers market expected to open late next year. The market is part of a larger development on Grand Avenue that includes 220 apartments and underground parking. The development, by Dargey Enterprises, includes a Hampton Inn & Suites hotel that will face W. Marine View Drive. The same developer built nearby Potala Village, which has apartments above street-level retail and restaurant space.

June 10, 2014 at sunset, a ladder of sunlight broke through the clouds as our wife and matriarch Alta Ruth Cooper Watts Johnson was at long last greeted by her many ancestors. The haloed moon to the east and lightning in the west, proved to us, she had arrived.
She was born Sept. 10, 1927 in Stuttgart, Ark., to Calvin Everett and Daisy Lee Gibbs Cooper.
'Ruth', as she was known, spent her childhood in Monroe, La., Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Richmond, Calif. Once out west, Ruth married Donald Ira Watts of Winnemucca. There she raised her three daughters. While in Winnemucca, she was involved in the Winnemucca Grammar School PTA and was a 4-H leader who taught sewing. She was also employed as a long distance telephone operator for Nevada Bell and as a receptionist for Dr. Lighthouse, OD.
In 1967 she moved to Carson City, Nev., where she met her husband of 47 years, Marine Master Sergeant Robert (Bob)
L. Johnson. Under the ruse that Bob was a professional golfer, she went on a blind date with him. She won the golf game that day which led Bob to quip, "You would make a suitable wife for a Marine Corp Master Sergeant." They were married the following Dec. 15 and she pulled rank ever since.
During the 47 years that Ruth and Bob were married, they lived in Las Vegas, Winnemucca, Sparks, Reno and Fallon, Nev.
She was employed over those years at the DRI (University of Nevada Reno), University of Nevada Reno Medical School, and Washoe County School District. For the last 20 years, she and Bob enjoyed life as grandparents in Fallon, Nev.
Her passion and calling was to be a loving wife and daughter, sister and mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She ruled with an old fashioned sense of values; a strong voice and whistle, determined character, and most of all an extremely loving heart. During her role as matriarch of the family, she endowed her daughters, granddaughters, and great-granddaughters with her strength and strong character.
She was preceded in death by her parents, brothers Everett Lee Cooper, Albert Clarence Cooper, John Thomas Cooper, sister in-law Carol Cooper, sister Patricia June Cooper Locke, brother-in-law Lee D. Locke, baby boy Watts, and nephew Dennis Lee Locke.
She is survived by her husband of 47 years, Bob, daughters Donna Gini Cooper-Watts, Patti Watts Adams Gross King (Don) of Fallon, Nev., Kati Watts Rimington Santiago (Mariano) of Salt Lake City, Utah, granddaughters Brandi Adams Hicks Hatfield (Paul) of Myrtle Creek, Ore,, Chariti Rimington of Seattle, Wash., Roxann Adams White (Travis) of Fallon, Nev., great-granddaughters Kayetlynn and Gabriell Hicks, Fiona White, great-great-granddaughter MiaKoda Hicks all of Fallon, Nev., nephews Kyle (Karen) Locke of Winnemucca, Nev., and Lenny (Deborah) Locke of Queens City, Ariz.
The family would like to thank the many caregivers and medical professionals who helped care for Ruth after her third stroke. Over the last 11 years, Steve Woodhouse, P.T, Jenny Yohey, Carol Klass, Lanette Anderson, Heather Parker, Billie, Emily, Amanda and many others provided Ruth with comfort and care during her final days.

United States Patent 3,328,477 MILD AND SELECTIVE HYDROGENATION WITH A TOWN-GAS CATALYST William F. Taylor, Scotch Plains, and John H. Sinfelt, Berkeley Heights, N.J., assignors to Esso Research and Engineering Company, a corporation of Delaware N0 Drawing. Filed Mar. 13, 1964, Ser. No. 351,854 6 Claims. (Cl. 260-677) This invention relates to the use of spent Town Gas catalysts which have become partially deactivated in a low temperature reaction of light hydrocarbons with steam to produce methane-rich gas products, the thus deactiated Town Gas catalyst being useful for selective hydrogenation reactions where a mild hydrogenation function is needed, i.e., the catalyst having a suitable low nickel surface area.
In the low-temperature process for producing a methane-rich Town Gas product, the light hydrocarbon reactants or hydrocarbon mixtures used as a feed for conversion with steam are preferably paraffinic hydrocarbons and in the C to C range. The nickel catalyst suitable for this conversion at temperatures in the range of 600 to 925 F., and preferably 650 to 900 F., should have a high nickel surface area in the range of 20 to 30 111 g. of catalyst which contains also alumina and preferably a suitable promoter. The fresh catalyst of Ni with silica made -by coprecipitation has higher surface areas. After the catalyst has been used for a satisfactory length of time for the Town Gas process so that the feed conversion or product quality can be maintained no longer, the catalyst cannot be used further for the reaction because no effective regeneration procedure exists. The highly active Town Gas catalysts of high nickel surface area have been found to have good catalyst activity maintenance or catalyst life for as long as 60 days and longer. At the end of this period of use as a Town Gas catalyst, these catalysts have retained a certain nickel surface area which gives these catalysts their utility as mild hydrogenation catalysts in lower temperature reactions. Although it is possible to rework the spent Town Gas catalyst to recover the metals, e.g., nickel, promoters, and aluminum, the reworking process to recover the metals is expensive, adding up to a large proportion of the fresh catalyst cost.
In accordance with the present invention, it has been found that the spent or partially deactivated Town Gas catalyst can be used for a variety of hydrogen reactions which require mild or selective hydrogenation activity, as for example, for selective hydrogenation of diolefins in a mixed monoolefin-diolefin hydrocarbon stream with economical and technical advantages over other kinds of catalysts prepared purposely for use as mild hydrogenation catalysts. These reactions which use a mild hydrogenation catalyst are generally carried out at lower temperatures than the Town Gas process temperatures.
Hydrogenation catalysts have been classified usually into two main groups: Group I-vigorous hydrogenation catalysts and Group II-mild (selective) hydrogenation catalysts. v
The fresh high surface area Town Gas catalysts definitely belong in Group I in that they are very active for carrying out reactions to the greatest possible extent, i.e., to thermodynamic equilibrium. A partially deactivated or spent Town Gas catalyst belongs in Group II because it is less active, mostly due to its lower nickel surface area.
Included among the reactions in which a mild hydrogenation catalyst is required are the following:
(1) Selective hydrogenation (a) Hydrogenation of one type of olefin in a stream containing mixed olefins 3,328,477 Patented June 27, 1967 (b) Partial hydrogenation of polyolefinic compounds, e.g., dienes and acetylenes (2) Reduction of aldehydes and ketones to form alcohols (3) Reduction of acids and esters to form alcohols (4) Reduction of hydroxy compounds to form hydrocarbons It is known that many different kinds of mild hydrogenation catalysts have been developed. They include catalysts in which the main catalytic component is copper, zinc oxide, chromium oxide, nickel sulfide, palladium or platinum. Such metals or metal compounds have usually been applied on support materials such as pumice, alumina or silica by impregnation with specific prepara tion techniques for obtaining many of these catalysts which are expensive to prepare. They may be poisoned by one type of material or another, e.g., by carbon monoxide in some instances or by sulfur compounds in other instances. They vary in their tendencies to cause breaking of carbon-to-carbon bonds or splitting of the organic molecules which are being treated. They also vary in their tendencies to cause polymerization of the unsaturated compounds treated or formed.
It has been found in accordance with the present invention that the partially deactivated Town Gas catalysts, which when freshly prepared have high total and nickel surface areas, reach a partially deactivated state in which the surface areas will remain suitable at a stable level and the catalyst becomes a mild and selective type of hydrogenation catalyst. These spent Town Gas catalysts are characterized by having nickel surface areas which are from 45 to 5% and total surface areas from 30 to 70% of the freshly prepared Town Gas catalyst. In other words, the total surface area of the spent catalyst is in the range of 45 to 100 m. g. and the nickel surface area is in the range of l to 10 m. g. These surface areas are determined by gas adsorption techniques. For the measurement of the total surface area nitrogen adsorption is used in the method of Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (Emmett, P. H., Advances in Catalysis I, (1948)). For measurement of the nickel surface area, hydrogen chemisorption is employed. The spent Town Gas catalysts are also characterized by sulfur contents of 0.6 wt. percent or less.
The catalysts having high surface areas are prepared by coprecipitation of nickel with alumina as hydroxides, carbonates and basic carbonates from aqueous solutions by adding certain ammoniumcompounds, e.g., ammonium bicarbonate, to an aqueous solution of nickel nitrate and aluminum nitrate, at temperatures from 32 to 212 F. or the boiling point of the solution, separating the precipitate from the remaining solution by filtration, drying the precipitate at a low temperature, preferably in the range of 200 to 400 F., calcining the dried precipitate in air at a low temperature in the range of 600 to 750 F., and finally reducing the nickel oxide for activation of the catalyst by treatment with hydrogen, preferably at a temperature of 600 to 750 F. Certain metals suitable as promoters are admixed as decomposable compounds, e.g., hydroxides, carbonates or nitrates, with the precipitates, or are coprecipitated. The promoting metals are preferably Ba, Sr, Ce, Cs, La, Y and K, although there are other possible promoters. However, it is important to avoid the presence of metals which have an adverse or inhibiting effect. It is thus to be noted that with the coprecipitation technique employed, there is no need for any washing step to remove Na ions, particularly when using a deionized water to prepare the aqueous salt solutions in which the coprecipitation takes place.
The present application is a continuation-in-part of applications which describe the preparation of the Town Gas catalyst, such as US. applications S.N. 317,799, 317,800,
3 317,777, filed by W. F. Taylor and I. H. Sinfelt on Oct. 21, 1963 and also US. application S.N. 327,840 filed by them Dec. 3, 1963.
The high surface area Ni-Al O catalyst contains. 40 to 60 wt. percent Ni with 60 to 40 wt. percent A1 on a dry basis, the promoting metal being present in a proportion of about 1 to 10 wt. percent of the weight of the catalyst. Through the use of the coprecipitation techniques, the resulting catalyst has an interspersion of the Ni in the alumina structure, in contrast to catalysts made by simply precipitating nickel onto a preformed support. There is evidently an interaction of the nickel interspersed with the alumina and bonding together thereof which gives this kind of catalyst its high surface area and unique properties.
There is a correlation between the catalytic activity of the nickel-alumina and nickel-silica coprecipitation catalysts and their nickel surface areas. The activity of the catalyst in the production of Town Gas, which contains in major proportion CH with CO and H at low temperatures, preferably in the range of 650 to 850 F., can be measured in terms of percent of hydrocarbon feed converted or in terms of product yield, i.e., volume of gas product produced during one hour at a fired set of conditions to space velocity, temperature, pressure, and water to hydrocarbon ratio.
The activity and life of the catalyst are relative measurements based on performance in the conversion of the selected hydrocarbon feed under standardized or comparative test conditions. For example, with a feed of principally n-hexane, this feed mixed with 2 lbs. steam per lb. of hydrocarbon is passed into the'catalyst bed at a specified space velocity (w./hr./w.), e.g., 5.6 lbs. hydrocarbon feed per hour per lb. of catalyst. In such a test a low activity Ni on kieselguhr catalyst gives an initial conversion of only 81% and rapidly becomes deactivated so that its life is less than 100 hours. Under the same conditions, a high-activity catalyst such as the nickelalumina formed by coprecipitation and containing a promoter, gives initial conversions of 97 to 100% and has a life of 400 hours to longer than 1000 hours. The Ba promoted nickel-alumina coprecipitation catalyst has given conversions of 95% and better for 300 hours running under the standardized conditions mentioned. Unpromoted Ni on alumina is approximately in the low class of activity as Ni on kieselguhr. Such comparative runs were made with a tempertaure control for heat transfer from the exothermic zone in the catalyst bedwhich is toward the exit, to the endothermic zone of the catalyst bed which is toward the inlet. With the high-activity catalyst, the Town Gas process causes the formation of these two zones, and to keep the temperature sufiiciently low for high methane formation temperature control mentioned is used. For example, if the feed mixture of hydrocarbon-steam enters the catalyst bed at 700 F., there is a tendency for the temperature to drop in the front part of the catalyst bed (which is about A to /3 of the bed) about 20 to 30 F.; then as the gaseous reaction mixture and product proceed through the remainder of the catalyst bed, the temperature tends to rise about 80 to 140 or more above the inlet temperature depending upon the amount of cooling of this exothermic zone.
The practical Town Gas reaction conditions may be varied from the standardized test conditions with respect tothe space velocity, being, for example, in the range of 1 up to 20 w./hr./w., the proportion of steam being varied, for example from 1.5 to 5 lbs. H O/lb. hydrocarbon feed, the temperatures being varied in the range of 650 to 900 F. and the pressure being in the range'of 1 to 100 atmospheres. Under these various conditions the hydrocarbon feed is converted, preferably 90% or above, to a high heating value Town Gas or fuel gas which may have a heating value from 500 to 1000 B.t.u./s.c.f.
and longer catalyst life, the
4 on account of the high methane content with the other major gaseous components being H and C0 The following examples are given to illustrate more specifically the method for preparing the Town Gas catalysts,-their use for making Town Gas at relatively low reaction temperatures which results in the partial deactivation of the catalystsso that they become spent for the purpose of making Town Gas, but nevertheless have mild hydrogenation activity that can be used in various processes requiring a mild or sensitive hydrogenation catalyst.
Example 1.High activity barium promoted Ni-Al O (coprecipitation) catalyst Thebarium promoted catalyst was made by dissolving 750 g. of Ni(NO .6H O and 740 g. of Al(NO .9H O in 3.0 liters of deionized water. coprecipitation was carried out by adding 1040 g. of NH HCO while keeping the slurry at F. At the end of the addition, the slurry was stirred an additional 2 hours at 120 F., and then filtered to remove approximately 300 cc. of water from the slurry. To the precipitate paste 17.2 g. of Ba(NO dissolved in a little deionized water was added and mixed well. The mixture was dried overnight at 220 F. and
then calcined in air for 4 hours at 750 F. The catalyst analyzed 47.6 wt. percent nickel and 2.9 wt. percent barium and had a total surface area of m. g. catalyst. The nickel surface area determined by H chemisorption was 24.0 m. /g.
In a similar manner the catalyst was promoted by addition of other proportions of barium nitrate and by the addition of other kinds of promoters such as Sr(NO cesium nitrate, lanthanum nitrate, KOH, and yttrium nitrate. It is also possible to make a mixture of NiCu or NiFe coprecipitated Ni-alumina, adding small amounts of iron nitrate or copper nitrate to the aqueous solution in which the coprecipitation takes place. In each instance the amount of the promoting compound added is an amount preferably making the catalyst contain about 0.1 to 6 wt. percent of promoter metal. The promoter metals differ in their effectiveness for promoting the activity of the catalyst for the reaction, as for example, barium being superior to Cs which in turn is superior to Sr and to K. Some of the promotersare more effective in higher amounts, as for example, 6 wt. pecent Ba is much more effective than 3 wt. percent.
As the high activity maintenance catalysts used for making Town Gas decline in activity gradually, in a practical operation it is desirable to raise the temperature .of the feed mixture approximately 5 F. in each succeeding 50 to 70 hours. For example, starting at a temperature between 660 and 680 F., during the first 181 hours a conversion of 98.2 to 98.8% of the gas is obtained and the quality of the gas is maintained close to 954 B.t.u./ s.c.f., then after an additional 57 hours the inlet temperature of the feed mixture is raised to 685 F. to keep the conversion about 96% and obtain a product of the same quality. This periodic increase of the inlet temperature is conducted so that after 900 hours the feed mixture inlet temperature is increased up to 740 F. and the conversion level has been maintained close to 96%, and the gas product quality in terms of heating value continues to be as high as 954 B.t.u./s.c.f. This is typical of a life test run with a Ba-promoted NiAl O catalyst made by the coprecipitation technique using a space velocity of 2.8 w./hr./w. at 500'p.s.i.g. with 2 lbs. steam per lb. hydrocarbon. After 1000 hours the deactivation of the catalyst became pronounced and it was not practical to continue the run further with the thus spent catalyst.
Similar life runs were made with the catalyst using the other promoters, e.g., Kpromoted Ni-alumina formed by coprecipitation and used in a run of 1278 hours, the first 1016 hours being run at a constant feed inlet of 700 F. to determine the rate of decline of conversion. With this catalyst at constant 700 F. inlet temperature,
TICS Ni-Alzoa (BY COPRECIPI'IATION CONTAINING 45.7 WT. PERCENT Ni AND 1.4 WT. PERCENT K) Fresh Spent Total surface area, rnfl/g 152 85 Nickel surface area, rnfl/g 22. 8 5. 6
The foregoing data show that the total surface area of the spent catalyst is 56% of the total surface area of the fresh catalyst and the nickel surface area 25% of the fresh nickel surface area.
Analyses of the spent catalyst dumped from life test runs showed that there is a small increase in carbon content and sulfur content of the catalyst, and this is considered to have a significant effect on the activity of the catalyst for producing Town Gas. However, from all indications, the loss of nickel surface area is a main factor in the deactivation which results in the formation of the spent catalyst, i.e., spent for the Town Gas reaction.
Exploratory studies made to determine the effect of gas components in the reaction and of temperature on the catalyst stability showed that these catalysts are stable at quite high temperatures, up to 1300 F. in the presence of H showing no appreciable decline in nickel surface area, but in the presence of 0 or H O the decline in nickel surface area becomes significant as the temperature is raised to above 900 F.
It is known that processes have been used to obtain a selective hydrogenation of the more unsaturated hydrocarbons in a mixture of hydrocarbons, e.g., hydrogenation of C acetylenes in a mixture with butadiene and butenes with least lowering of butene content. One type of selective hydrogenation for this purpose passes a C fraction in gaseous phase with sufiicient hydrogen for reaction with the acetylenes over a specially made Cr and K promoted Fe catalyst at 350 to 650 F. under a pressure of 0 to 900 p.s.i.g. Another type of process for this purpose uses a very low surface area carrier, e.g., pumice or clay impregnated by a small amount of palladium as catalyst for treating the C fraction in liquid phase with added hydrogen at 30 to 90 F. under higher pressure.
In the higher temperature processes the diolefins and acetylenes tend to polymerize, e.g., at above 245 F. In the extremely low temperature process there are more refrigeration costs, the reaction is slow, and the catalysts tend to be susceptible to poisoning by adsorbed substances, e.g., CO.
The spent Town Gas catalysts of the present invention have hydrogenating activities and surface areas which place them in between the catalysts which are used at temperatures above 350 F. and those used mainly at temperatures substantially below ordinary temperatures. They are inexpensive and less sensitive to poisoning by substances such as CO.
The mild hydrogenation conditions used with the spent Town Gas catalysts are generally: temperatures of 70 to 220 F., pressures of 1 to 30 atmospheres, space velocities of 10 to 60 w./hr./w., i.e., pounds of hydrocarbon feed per hour per pound of catalyst. For selective hydrogenation of acetylenes in the mixture, about 0.5 to 5 moles of H are used per mole of hydrocarbon in the hydrocarbon feed. For selective hydrogenation of diolefins in a mixture with monoolefins the conditions are adjusted in this general range, the diolefins being reacted less readily than acetylene but more readily than monoolefins.
The spent Town Gas catalysts have a high reduced Ni content, highly interspersed with the alumina, and compare favorably with the massive Ni catalyst known as the Raney nickel catalyst. The incorporation of the Ni in a porous support can help the diffusion of the gases to the active sites where hydrogen and the most reactive compounds are brought together. The deactivation of the nickel in the catalyst through its use in making Town Gas evidently diminishes the nickel surface area and catalyst activity sufiiciently to make the catalyst a mild or selective hydrogenation catalyst and thus minimize the reaction of the hydrocarbon components other than those that are most reactive.
Example 2 A fresh Town Gas catalyst prepared as described in Example 1, i.e., a catalyst having a nickel surface area of 24.0 m. /g., was tested for its hydrogenating activity for obtaining complete hydrogenation of ethylene to ethane. This complete saturation was accomplished by passing hydrogen with ethylene in a mole ratio of 6.7 to 1 at a space velocity of 10.4 (g. ethylene/ hr./ g. catalyst) through the catalyst bed at temperatures of to F. under a total pressure of one atmosphere. This indicated that such a catalyst has an activity for hydrogenating ethylene not much higher than that of a palladium on alumina catalyst.
Simply by lowering the H /C H ratio, e.g., down to 2:1, and increasing the space velocity the amount of ethylene hydrogenation is lowered to any desired level.
Example 3.Silicate stabilized Ni catalyst The catalyst is prepared by adding 50 g. of acid washed kieselguhr to 3.5 liters of deionized water with stirring. -To this slurry is added 750 g. of Ni(NO .6H O and 320 g. of Na SiO .9H O, and the mixture is brought to a boil. To this mixture 800 g. of NH HCO is added to coprecipitate the Ni and silicate ions. After the addition of the slurry was boiled an additional 3 hours. The resultant catalyst was dried overnight at 230 F. and calcined for 4 hours at 750 F. After reduction with H for 15 hours at 700 F., the Ni surface area was 47 m. g. The total surface area was 304 m. g. The catalyst after calcination analyzed 43.7 wt. percent Ni.
Example 4 The Ni/SiO catalyst described in Example 3 was reduced in H overnight at 675 F. Then ethylene was passed over the catalyst at a space velocity of 40.3 w./hr./ w. at atmospheric pressure at temperatures from 95 to 140 F. with 100% conversion of the ethylene to ethane. A H to ethylene ratio of 6.7 to 1 was employed for the reaction.
Example 5 A Town Gas catalyst of the kind shown in Examples 1 and 3 after deactivation so as to have the lowered surface areas shown in Table I, can be used for selective hydrogenation of C diolefins from a pentene stream containing 1 to 10 wt. percent of the diolefins, the diolefins being converted to pentenes in the operation. The hydrocarbons with 2 to 5 moles H admixed per mole of the hydrocarbon are passed through a bed of the catalyst at l to 10 atmospheres pressure at a space velocity of 40 g. hydrocarbon per hour per g. of catalyst at F. or lower temperature, depending on the activity of the spent catalyst, to obtain selective hydrogenation of the diolefins.
Example 6 A crude C fraction containing approximately in vol. percent 37% 1,3-butadiene, 1% acetylenes (vinyl and ethyl), 45% butene, and 17% butane can be passed through the spent Town Gas catalyst of Example 1 with its lowered surface area as shown in Table I at a space velocity of 40 g. per hour per g. of catalyst at 150 F. using a H /hydrocarbon ratio of 5/1 and a pressure of 100 p.s.i.g. to obtain selective conversion of the acetylenes to the butadiene and butene.

Use less salt! Reduce your sodium intake to reduce water retention and high blood pressure.
Eat good fats! Avocados, olive oil, walnuts, and salmon
are all examples of "good fats" that can protect you from bad cholesterol and raise your good cholesterol.
Go fiber! Fiber is a crucial part of a nutritional diet, as it reduces constipation, lowers your risk of chronic disease, and helps you feel more full when eating.
Eat more veggies! The best way to prepare vegetables is by steaming or sautéing them in olive oil. Olive oil preserves nutrients and is a great example of the good fats doctors recommend.
Diversify your plate! A helpful tip from Japanese food culture is to include five colors on your plate. Fruits and veggies rich in color correspond to rich nutrients (blackberries, melons, yams, spinach, tomatoes, zucchini).

- The 18th ISAD Online Conference -
Spread the Word – Education, Cooperation, Communication
The International Stuttering Association has formed a small team made up of Anita Blom, Keith Boss, Dan Hudock, Bruce Imhoff and Hanan Hurwitz to produce and run the ISAD Online Conference. We hope we can live up to the high expectations of previous conference attendees.
For participants who need some basic information about stuttering, please read about Stuttering from the American Speech, Language and Hearing Association. Additional information is available on the Stuttering Home Page.
The conference is designed for people who stutter, their families and employers, the professionals who work with them, students in training and their instructors.
From October 1, papers will be published on a variety of topics related to fluency and fluency disorders. An online forum will also be available, where you can ask questions of experts in the field of stuttering.
Online article by Katherine Preston
Communication and emotion are caught up in such a delicate dance, and some of it isn't pretty.
The ability to be heard by others, to listen to what the world has to offer each day, to share readily and easily one's memories, experiences, opinions and dreams—all contribute to a sense of social completeness and belonging, to feelings of contentment.
The reverse is also true. Emotional responses to communication disorders—how we react to the continual threat of being isolated from friends, family, colleagues and peers—can run a complex gamut, sometimes over the course of a single day. Sometimes we accept, other times we might get frustrated, angry or really depressed.
Originating in a well-received ASHA convention session, Katherine Preston's powerful piece profiles two people who stutter who confronted the darkness at the extreme end of this cascading emotional spectrum. With the help of speech-language pathologists, Scott Palasik and Tim returned to the light.

LO has been waking up at night now for about 3-4 weeks. At first I thought it was teething or a wonder week, but it has continued. She has had a few nights where she doesn't wake up at all, but mostly it's once per night. I have tried rocking her or holding her, but she gets so mad. The only way to get her to go back to bed is by giving her a bottle. She recently had her one year check up and I let the pedi know what was going on. She suggested putting water in her bottle instead of milk. I tried that and she noticed that it wasn't milk and got extremely upset.
I feel like I have a newborn again sometimes. Last night, she was up 3 times! The first time, I gave her a bottle and she went back to bed. The second time, I tried rocking her, walking around with her and putting her in my bed, but she was not happy. I even tried letting her cry in her bed for a few minutes but she screamed like there was no tomorrow and I didn't want her to wake her older sister. I ended up giving her another bottle after 45 minutes of her crying and she fell asleep for another 2 hours, but then woke up again. That time, I just laid her in my bed with me. She cried (or should I say screamed, rather) and then after about 10 minutes settled down and went to sleep.
Anyone else going through this? Any advice?

Did you know that moisturizing creams can offer protection, relief and can even have healing qualities? If you have specific areas that need attention, try a hand cream, foot cream, or face cream. There are also all-over body creams that help to smooth, hydrate and moisturize. Nivea and Aveeno offer both broad skin cream solutions and targeted moisturizing products for areas that need extra attention.
Our selection of moisturizing creams includes organic skincare creams, medical strength creams, and hypo-allergenic lotions. There are specific creams for conditions such as psoriasis and eczema, body creams for babies, and lightening creams to help fade freckles, age spots and more. Moisturizing creams also include shave gels and shave lotions that protect your skin during shaving. If you need to restore, soften or relieve dry skin, try a moisturizing cream with ingredients ranging from green tea to olive oil, shea butter to vitamin E.

My wife and I stayed at The Vine for 7 days/nights during Thanksgiving week and paid extra for the Preferred Club. We have stayed about 5 times in the Riveria Maya area, always at all-inclusives.
The facility - Absolutely beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed the "newness" of our room, the spa, the gym (incredible-state of the art equipment), and the overall campus.
Preferred Club - don't waste your money. Yes, the 12th floor pool and separate bar were a nice touch, but we never enjoyed the pool because it was ice cold. And the special Preferred Lounge on the 21st floor was a joke. Very "sterile" feeling, very few uncomfortable seats, and very small area. Other Preferred areas at other resorts that we've been to made their preferred lounges feel like a private bar/lounge where you could comfortably hang out and enjoy real appetizers. The appetizers here were all foo-foo and very small. BTW - the only place that The Vine serves Crown Royal is on the 12th and 21st floor bars.
Room - beautiful! Especially liked the oversize shower! But like everyone else has commented, you could hear SO much hallway noise. And if there's any live entertainment by the pool, or next door at the Hard Rock, you hear everything! Balcony was nice, but no privacy. In-room "bar" was 3 airplane-size bottles of spirits on a tray - a HUGE disappointment?! Yes, there was an in-room fridge, but if you didn't tip the guy who filled it up for you everyday, 90% of what he put in the fridge was waters, juice, pop --- not beers as requested. Only snacks were mini size can of Pringles and peanut M&Ms.
Entertainment - the staff was awesome, especially Bethany and Winnie. They always called you by your name, and took time out of their busy days to make you feel at home. Sebastian the bartender at the Vine Lounge was AWESOME --- Thank You Sebastian!
Shopping - very convenient and inexpensive. It costs $1 per person to take any local bus to one of two shopping malls with 5-10 minutes from The Vine. We preferred La Isla which was an open air mall with many dining options on the waterfront.
The spa was beautiful but very over-priced. They did have an "Open Bar" massage option on the list that was basically four massages for what it would have cost for three. Brenda, who made the appointments and checked everyone in was very nice and helpful. The two therapists that I had were very good, however the woman was better. The facilities were very nice, although it wasn't very quiet in the "relaxation room". Overall, a good experience.
$400 in Hotel Vouchers - this was actually one of the items that helped sway us towards staying at The Vine. But after you get your vouchers, you find that they are just discounts off a full-priced item (like $20 off a $200 private beach dinner, or $X off a bottle of $40 wine). We didn't even use ONE of them. Disappointed.
Transfer to/from airport - as mentioned before, we've stayed in the cancun area before. HIGHLY recommend that you pay extra, as we did, for the private transfer to/from the airport.
Overall - We were happy that we tried The Vine, but we prefer the other all-inclusives in the Riviera Maya that have a larger campus, have breathtaking landscaping, separate areas where nightly entertainment/shows have their own "theater" that isolate the loud music, rooms that have "real" in-room bars, and Preferred Clubs that truly pamper you.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

If I'm not mistaken there should be an Adobe PDF Reader added on there by default. Reason for not having PDF reader bundled with Docs2go could have something to do with RIM partnering with Adobe. The qPDF Viewer from Qoppa Software is free and provides more options than the Adobe Reader.
For annotation, form-filling there is qPDF Notes from the same company which costs $10, think it got reduced to $5 recently but not many alternatives out there for editing.

Adobe PDF Reader comes stock on the PlayBook.... It is fine for view basic PDF's every once in a while, but qPDF Viewer has many more options.
That said, opening large PDF's on the PlayBook shows some of it's shortcomings. I've used it on a few jobs and in meetings to view architectural drawings. I've tried the Adobe Reader, qPDF and ReplicGo Reader - all with pretty much the same results. It takes the PlayBook a long to to "redraw" an image on the screen - it's not just mine but we compared several Playbooks in the company and they all have this shortcoming. Whereas the one guy with an uNamed tablet (version 2) just breezes thru drawings. I assume it has to do with the GPU in the PlayBook being underpowered or not having enough video memory (which is strange because of how well some Video Games look). Either way in my particular industry this means the PlayBook isn't the best tool for the job.

Business alliance would like to see hotel in downtown Ocala
Published: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 at 10:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 at 10:42 p.m.
Downtown Business Alliance President Ted Schatt asked the City Council Tuesday to delay sending a default notice to downtown developer White Challis to give the DBA board an opportunity to review a Scheinblum Hospitality Development's proposal to build a hotel downtown, but the council was having none of it. The council voted unanimously to send the default notice immediately to White Challis if the developer does not meet its Nov. 1 deadline.
"We continue to get these last-minute things," Councilman Jay Musleh told Schatt.
Schatt told the council that he and a number of other DBA members met with representatives of White Challis, city staff and hotel developer Scheinblum Hospitality Development. Scheinblum proposed to build a 60-plus room hotel with a restaurant, shops and convention space on the former Chamber of Commerce site downtown, the same site on which White Challis was supposed to build a commercial and residential development. The city, which owns the land, was going to give the property to White Challis once construction commenced. However, White Challis failed to deliver on its promise and will be in default Nov. 1 if it does not deliver approved plans and permits, a deadline it publicly said it could not meet. In a last-ditch effort to keep its project alive, White Challis on Oct. 2 proposed to the City Council, instead, having Scheinblum build a hotel, but Council expressed no interest.
Schatt said Tuesday he wanted time to have the DBA review Scheinblum's proposal to see if it had merit. The DBA's publicly stated priority is to have a hotel built downtown. Scheinblum, reportedly, has built boutique hotels in South Beach just off the coast of Miami.
Schatt said Scheinblum did not want to have to go through a Request for Proposal process, which would allow other interested parties to submit their ideas for downtown development, because that would take too long. Schatt said Scheinblum was 75 days away from getting its financing for a hotel. Rather than start from scratch, it was suggested that the White Challis agreement could be amended to, instead, have Scheinblum build the hotel and to eliminate White Challis and its earlier proposal completely from the contract. The hotel could be constructed by the middle of 2014, he said.
If council would delay sending its default notice, the DBA board could meet to review the project and either make a recommendation or not to the council, Schatt said.
"Everything is 75 days away from financing," said Councilman Musleh, a banker, clearly unimpressed with what he was hearing.
He said White Challis has had two years for its project and has not turned any dirt. Musleh said the only thing a hotel in South Beach and one in Ocala would have in common is that they are both in Florida.
Schatt said he was not advocating for the project. He simply wanted time for his board to review it.
Councilman Daniel Owen said there may be other sites downtown that would be suitable for a hotel, such as the former Social Security office site that previously was Skipper's Office Supply store off Southeast First Avenue. He said he believed a hotel downtown would be "extremely successful."
Owen said he wanted to stop the White Challis project and added that there may be others who are interested in proposing a project.
Council President Suzy Heinbockel said that, if Scheinblum believes it is so valuable, than others would find it valuable, too, and the city would benefit from having other proposals.
"It continues to get more and more valuable," Heinbockel said.
Councilman John McLeod said he would like to put out a Request for Proposals.
"I don't want to rush into something," McLeod said.
He said he would love to see a hotel but said the council should take its time "and do it the right way."
Those sentiments resulted in the vote to send White Challis the default notice on Nov. 2 if it misses the Nov. 1 deadline.
Schatt said after the meeting that he understood the council's position.
"I am perfectly fine with City Council saying we are going to get rid of it and we are going to go forward," Schatt said about the White Challis agreement. "If the (hotel) project is good enough, it will stand on its own two feet when it's ready."
Brian Scheinblum of Scheinblum Hospitality Development could not be reached for comment on Wednesday.

Yeah, if you build with an escort in mind the regent is the better choice.
If you want to tank well in the Sovereign, your entire skill tree needs to be reworked away from being damage dealer and an engineer does it better of course., but a tac can do it, too.
Make sure you max shield and armor over weapons, get skill points in hull and shield repair, damage resistance, etc and use gear accordingly. Then take a look at skills.
At some point you will be able to get chased by the entire KDF and not get killed (unless they power drain you to oblivion).

Good location
The staff was very friendly, I was new traveling by myself, they took the time to help know how to get around. It's a good location, you can get the main buses that will take you to the mail locations of attranction.
Right accross from this hotel there is a place called Jimmy's joint I believe, and its a bar with a great selection of beres, great food, cheap, you can sit at the bar, eat and watch some sports.
Great price unless you need to park.
Nice to have breakfast included. Enjoyed the lounge area in front of the check-in desk and the free internet.
Right on the bus route or walking distance.
Would not recommend
We stayed on a Monday night. We ate at the diner that is attached to the hotel. The food was not good and the service was awful. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, but parking was outrageous--$25 plus a parking tax. The architecture of
the building was pretty, but we quickly found out that walking around the area after dark is not such a good idea. I was glad the car was parked in the lot so I could guarantee it would be there in the morning. The hotel would be fine for a business trip stay, but I wouldn't recommend it for tourist trips.
excellent location in San for travel...
very near all the center: Civic center, Little Saigon, City Hall, Park, Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman's Warf... go by bus or taxi. However the long distance rate is rather high, so pls call by card or using internet for cheaper.
Very nice, very convenient location
Easy access to cabs, bus. very close to a great movies theatre (next door) great restaurants in walking distance, Tommy's joint across the street. House of Prime rib just a few blocks away. Very clean and great old SF atmosphere. Will stay
there again. Susanne was very friendly and helpful when we checked in.
Tommy's joint and House of Prime Rib, Tommy joint very, very reasonable with great food, House of Prime Rib more expensive with great food.
Very kind staffs, great location.
San Francisco during the rainy season
Room clean, quite, and comfortable. EVERYONE greeted us with a smile and couldn't have been more helpful. The young lady that took care of the breakfast nook was outstanding. Missed the 'happy hour" but understand from other guests that it was
also fine. All telephone calls to the hotel were answered quickly, and provided all the needed information in detail. We ate at the diner adjacent to the hotel and enjoyed every meal. The establishment for eating directly across from the hotel also had delicious and inexpensive food. Public transportation was easy to obtain, could even walk a couple of blocks and catch the California line cable car which went to the Embarcadero. Great place to stay.
When you arrive in San Francisco go to Pier 33 and buy your City Pass with the Alcatraz tour. We went to 5 of the museums etc. and used the transportation pass daily which also includes the $5.00 cable car trips. Convenient to use no hunting for change and more than paid for itself with just two of the included activities.
Horrible Hotel [...]
Front desk staff on arrival was horribly rude, lied that manager was not present when other staff member later indicated that a manager WAS on site at the time requested, and took hotel GM 3 DAYS to eventually call to address the inexcusable
treatment at check-in AND second night of stay, night manager did not address VERYLOUD noise problem in adjoining room at 3:00 a.m. Until about 5:00 a.m. WORST STAY AT ANY HOTEL/MOTEL IN MEMORY FOR OVER 20 years of business travel! [...]DO NOT STAY AT THE OPAL HOTEL [...]
greal experience!
we whent to the city to see the ballet and some shoping a very nice and placent 3days stay,
the staff make us feel in home very freindly and warm a big thumps up! we will back again and again..
very close to the opera house city hall and resturants and shops
Vintage Downtown
The parking garage was sold out at the hotel and so they directed us to a city garage that was $22 a night. We wound up parking on the street, 1 block up, which was free for 2 hours starting at 9am- definitely the way to go!
Front desk staff was
a bit unpleasant and lectured one of the bell boys in front of us.
Breakfast was cleaned up by 9am, which was too early for a saturday morning after a late night out.
Room was very large and bathroom was nice. The couch was incredibly hard though. Beds were nice. The entire hotel had a very vintage smell- very much like your grandmas house.
Overall, a nice place. It was clean and spacious. Did the trick and was a fast walk to bars on Polk Street.
